Khatib ha ricoperto l’incarico sia nel governo di Raisi sia in quello…

Tumori, allo studio nanoparticelle per un’immunoterapia universale – Biotech – Ansa.it

Aprono la strada ad un’immunoterapia universale, che elimina tempi e costi di terapie personalizzate, le nuove nanoparticelle anticancro messe a punto nella ricerca coordinata dall’Università della Pennsylvania e pubblicate sulla rivista Nature Nanotechnology. Le nanoparticelle funzionano come una sorta di energy drink per le cellule immunitarie dell’organismo: contrastano il loro…

Your daily coffee may be protecting your brain, 43-year study finds

A large prospective cohort study conducted by researchers from Mass General Brigham, Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, and the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard examined data from 131,821 participants in the Nurses’ Health Study (NHS) and Health Professionals Follow-Up Study (HPFS). The findings showed that moderate intake…

These strange pink rocks just revealed a hidden giant beneath Antarctica

Bright pink granite boulders scattered across the dark volcanic peaks of the Hudson Mountains in West Antarctica have led scientists to a remarkable discovery. Beneath Pine Island Glacier lies an enormous buried granite mass, nearly 100 km wide and 7 km thick, roughly half the size of Wales in the…

Incendio alla Biennale, coinvolto il Padiglione Serbia – Notizie – Ansa.it

Grossa colonna di fumo scuro visibile sopra Venezia stamattina. Poco prima delle 10 è scattato l’allarme alla centrale lagunare dei vigili del fuoco per un incendio divampato dal tetto del padiglione Serbia della Biennale dei Giardini, in centro storico. La sede dell’esposizione artistica è stata messa sotto controllo grazie al…

These dinosaurs had wings but couldn’t fly

Dinosaur fossils preserved with their feathers suggest that some of these animals had already lost the ability to fly. As the research team explains, “Feather molting seems like a small technical detail — but when examined in fossils, it can change everything we thought about the origins of flight, highlighting…

AI uses as much energy as Iceland but scientists aren’t worried

Artificial intelligence is often blamed for driving up energy use and worsening climate change, but new research suggests its overall impact on global emissions is surprisingly small. The findings even point to potential environmental and economic benefits as AI continues to expand. Researchers from the University of Waterloo and the…

Maltempo, allerta gialla in nove regioni – Notizie – Ansa.it

La coda lunga dell’inverno non lascia l’Italia: pioggia, neve e forte vento da Nord a Sud. Oggi allerta gialla in nove regioni: Abruzzo, Basilicata, Calabria, Lazio, Marche, Molise, Puglia, Sicilia, Umbria. Allagamenti ieri in Calabria. Evacuate nel Biellese settantuno persone a causa delle forti nevicate. L’ennesima ondata di maltempo, la…

He survived 48 hours without lungs and lived

Humans cannot survive without lungs. Yet one patient managed to live for 48 hours without them. In a report published in the Cell Press journal Med, surgeons detail how they removed a man’s severely infected lungs and used an “artificial lung” system to keep him alive until a double lung…

New drug protects liver after intestinal surgery and boosts nutrient absorption

When sections of the small intestine become diseased or die, surgeons often must remove the damaged tissue. This procedure, known as a radical small bowel resection, can save lives. However, it comes with a major downside. Many patients later develop serious liver problems, including long-term damage or even liver failure…

Even JWST can’t see through this planet’s massive haze

A newly studied exoplanet, Kepler-51d, is wrapped in an unusually dense layer of haze that may be hiding both what it is made of and how it formed. Using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), a team led by Penn State researchers took a closer look at this so-called “super-puff”…

AI-powered robot learns how to harvest tomatoes more efficiently

Farm labor shortages are pushing agriculture toward greater automation, especially when it comes to harvesting. But not all crops are easy for machines to handle. Tomatoes, for example, grow in clusters, which means a robot must carefully select ripe fruit while leaving unripe ones untouched. This requires precise control and…

Scientists used 7,000 GPUs to simulate a tiny quantum chip in extreme detail

Creating detailed computer models of quantum chips helps scientists predict how they will behave before manufacturing begins. This approach allows researchers to catch potential issues early and confirm that designs will perform as expected. At Berkeley Lab, Quantum Systems Accelerator (QSA) researchers Zhi Jackie Yao and Andy Nonaka from the…

Study finds ChatGPT gets science wrong more often than you think

Washington State University professor Mesut Cicek and his research team repeatedly tested ChatGPT by giving it hypotheses taken from scientific papers. The goal was to see if the AI could correctly determine whether each claim was supported by research or not — in other words, whether it was true or…

Scientists link childhood stress to lifelong digestive issues

A new study published in Gastroenterology suggests that stress during early life may increase the risk of digestive problems later on. Researchers found that these effects are linked to changes in both the gut and the sympathetic nervous system. “Our research shows that these stressors can have a real impact…

Scientists just discovered bull sharks have friends

New research reveals that bull sharks form social relationships with specific “friends,” challenging the long-standing belief that these predators live mostly solitary lives. The study — conducted at the Shark Reef Marine Reserve in Fiji — found that bull sharks do not simply mix randomly. Instead, they display “active social…

JWST reveals a strange sulfur world unlike any planet we know

A research team led by the University of Oxford has uncovered evidence for a previously unknown kind of planet beyond our Solar System — one that locks away large quantities of sulfur deep inside a long lasting ocean of molten rock. The results were published on March 16 in Nature…
